[Nishith Sutra
2. A Samarth Sadhu takes food with doubt. 3. An Asamarth Sadhu takes food without doubt.
4. An Asamarth Sadhu takes food with doubt. Charinkara says:
1. Santhadio naam hatth-samatyoo,
2. Vitigiccha-vimarsha-mativipluta sandeh ityartha, sa niggata vitigiccha jassa so nivitigiccho bhavati.
3. Abbadihehi karanehi anidhe aicche sanka bhavati-kim udito anudito ti. Athamanakale vi kim suro dharati na va ti sanka bhavati. (So vitigicchaao).
4. Chh ththamadina tavena kilanto asanthado, gelanneena va dubbalasariro asanthado, dohadhdhaaneena va pajjattan alabhanto asanthado.
1. Sansthrita arthat swasth ya samarth. 2. Nivichikitsa arthat sandeharahit.
3. Badal adi karanon se surya ke nahin dikhne par shanka hoti hai ki suryoday hua ya nahin athava suryaast ke samay surya hai ya ast ho gaya, aisi shanka hoti hai.
4. Bele, tele adi tap se ashakta bana hua, rugnata se durbal sharir wala ya lambe vihar mein aahar ke alabh se kshudhatur bhikshu asansthrita kahalata hai.
While travelling, if there is no possibility of getting food ahead and the village where the night rest was taken, almost all the people are going to the fields etc. in the morning, then even a Samarth (healthy) Sadhu can go to take food. Similarly, if there is no possibility of getting food etc. the next day, then the occasion of bringing alms in the evening may arise.
For an Asamarth (weak), such occasions are easily possible.
Sometimes, due to clouds or mountains etc., there may be an impression that the sunrise has happened or the sunset has not happened. Then, after a while, the correct situation comes to the fore.
_ If, in a doubtful or non-doubtful situation, after taking food, it is decided that the sunrise has not happened or the sunset has happened, or if the sunrise has happened after taking food, then that food is not considered fit for the Sadhu to eat. If eaten, the fault of night food is incurred and he has to perform the atonement of Guruchaumasi. Therefore, whether the food is in the food vessel or in the hand or in the mouth, it should be discarded and the hands etc. should be washed with water. Atonement for swallowing the vomit
29. If a Bhikshu vomits up the food he has eaten, whether in the day or at night, and swallows it again, or swallows it again, he incurs a sin.
